What makes a good or poor

[TonyG]

waiter or waitress when you go out to dine?

Do you look for different qualities when you dine in a casual restaurant compared to a fine dinning establishment? What causes you to tip differently?

Someone who keeps an eye on my drink level.. a pleasant demeaner. Friendly and smiling are big bonuses, but not must haves.


I never "blame" the wait staff for bad quality food.. they didn't prepare it and have no control over it. Oh and I also don't want someone asking me every 3 minutes if "everything is okay".

well.. I am not a waiter/waitress.. But i do tips well.. if the service is good.

and I don't tips if the serivce is bad. Very simple.

It all depends if he lets me grab his ass or not.

Morning, handsome.

I should test that theory of yours some day.


Hiya sexy!

One that doesn't tell me their life story while I am dining. I have had that happen more times than I care to count. Someone who is aware of my needs, but not intrusive. One that is available, but not hovering.

I usually receive much better service in casual dining, than fine dining. Not sure why that is. One thing that will effect the way I tip will be if the tip is going to my server, or into a jar for all of them at the end of the night. I will tip less if it is going into a jar.
